About this sitter

I'm a Holistic Health Therapist, Intutive Counselor, Yoga & Dance Teacher, and Free Spirit. I've loved to travel for as long as I can remember, as my mother instilled an adventurous nature in me from an early age. As I describe more below, I have been a professional pet sitter locally for many years now, but am now taking to those skills on the road to travel, see, and stay in more places. As far as what I am looking for in a house sit goes, I'm happy to stay anywhere in the world with good internet, pets or no pets, and ideally in interesting and/or beautiful locations. The possibilities simply depend on whether or not our timing, travel details, etc. align.

Why they want to house sit

I have already been a pet sitter locally (in the San Francisco Bay Area) for many years, and am now in the fortunate situation of being able to do all of my other work remotely online and over the phone. Back at the end of 2021, I moved out of my San Francisco house of 7+ years, put most of my stuff in storage, and started house sitting for a couple of friends. I spent two months in Merida, Mexico in the spring of 2022 staying in a friend's house while she traveled. I had such a wonderful time there that it reminded me of how much I love to travel, and that it's so much nicer to stay in a home for a longer period of time in order to actually get to know a place. I then met someone else in Merida who offered to rent me a house he had just renovated until he put it on the market in the fall. So I went back to California for a couple months, and then spent July and August in Merida. I spent some time in Arizona this fall/winter, and am now pet and house sitting again in California in between staying with my boyfriend and visiting friends.

I am originally from Canada, and would love to spend more time in various parts of the country, and perhaps occassionaly closer to places where I have family. I would love to spend more time in various parts of Mexico as well. Really, I am open to going anywhere in the world. It's an amazing feeling to have a break from being rooted in one place and free to go where I want for awhile, with not so many strings attached in my life at the moment. I know I'll want to settle down again at some point, and then perhaps I'll still do this once in awhile and can hire sitters to stay in my own home while I travel to other places.

Their experience

I've been a professional pet sitter with Rover since 2015, and have been pet sitting off and on since I was a kid. See my Rover profile here: https://www.rover.com/members/ankke-o-intuitive-loving-responsible/
This of course, in addition to caring for their pets, involves taking care of my clients' homes, plants, yards, trash, mail collection, and whatever else needs to be taken care of during my stays. I always aim to leave a home cleaner and tidier than I found it (I am a natural neat freak, lol). When I'm staying at someone else's home I treat it as if it were my own-because it is my home in that interim! And I want the owners to feel like everything is, as much as possible, just as they left it, whenever they return home.

What can they bring to the assignment

As I wrote above, I've been a professional pet sitter with Rover since 2015, and have been pet sitting off and on since I was a child. See my Rover profile here: https://www.rover.com/members/ankke-o-intuitive-loving-responsible/

If you have animals, their care is my first priority. I love all animals and always have a great time with them, also as if they were my own. I am intuitive and experiened with pets, so I'm able to read how they are feeling and meet their needs accordingly.
